Lead application Adaptive edge AI systems for industrial application
Based on our research, it will be possible to integrate artificial intelligence directly into the sensor and thus derive decisions in real time without detouring via the cloud. The automated adaptation to new environmental conditions can open up versatile fields of application.
These solutions can be used to detect fault conditions or wear directly in the process or to implement measurement systems for maintenance that enable direct evaluation based on the sensor data. This makes an active contribution to the conservation of resources (computing time, communication overhead).
